Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
Since when does 'hard work' win games? That's the scam the Flames were putting on fans during the sorid 'young guns' years. The Calgary Flames can work as hard as they want, but poor defensive play and terrible offence won't win you games. With his usual per game...
FlamesForum offers their own take on games; if you want play by play reporting then pick up a newspaper, we're here to give you the real good. The Calgary Flames came into Montreal after a tough OT loss against Toronto. Nobody really knew what kind of game they were...
Well first things first, I'm beginning to like the style of hockey of the new Maple Leafs. Albeit the referee's in tonights game were horriable (yes the last penalty on Tucker was a penalty, just as all the other bogus hooks were,) Mats Sundin stole the show by...
Jarome leads by example, by missing an open net....but luckily it was with 20 seconds left. The Flames captain continues to lead his team trying to get things going by providing offensive flare and continuing his hard work ethic. In true Flames fashion, the PP didn't...
The Calgary Flames were touted by many to win the cup, but quite frankly, they're currently one of the worst teams in the NHL. It appears the team is content with the '1 game on 1 game off'mentality as they were badly beaten by a team that is truly one of the league's...
I've said it from the start, the Flames will win the season series 6-2, however, with play like today, I may be wrong. The Calgary Flames got new coach Jim Playfair's first win in game two of the 2006-07 NHL season. The season opener at home was met with much fanfare...
The Flames picked up their play from game seven of last season, which isn't a good thing. A lacklustre effort turned into a 3-1 opening loss again the Oilers. The Fan 960 post game talked about how the Flames ran into the 'hot goalie' and played 'pretty well', I...
The 2006-2007 season is here, finally! Now I can't say there's that much excitment as a year ago when the lock out happened, but Flames fans are definately pleased that we get another kick at the can this year with what many believe is the best team we've had in...
The Calgary Flames signed defenseman Andrew Ference to a three-year contract extension. He'll be a Flames, baring trade, until 2010. Ference had career highs in assists (27), points (31) and games (82) last season and added four assists in seven postseason games. He...
The Sharks came into town and helped produce a largely entertaining game, that is until the third. The veterans of the Flames are really stepping up, skilles players are scoring, Amonte is still impressing, Iggy scored on a breakaway, Phanuef (not a vet) is...
The Flames took game two of the home and home versus the Oilers in pre-season action at Rexall Place. Alex Tanguay showed flashes of what is soon to be a 5 million dollar campaign dominating the top line with Amonte. Tanguay had a power-play goal and an assist to lead...
The Flames sent r Darryl Sutter announced Friday that the Flames have assigned 19 players to Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights. Goaltender (1): Matt, Keetley Defencemen (5): Tim Hambly, Steve Marr, Brett Palin, Adam Pardy, Tim Ramholt Forwards (13): Kris Chucko, Derek Couture,...
There was good, bad, and meh, it's regular season. The Flames lost their first pre-season game versus the Oilers at Home. The 4-3 contest was decided in overtime when 3 giveaways one after another lead to an Oiler breakaway for the short-handed game winner. The big...
Who woulda thunk it? Jeff Friesen is a fighter, Daymond Langkow likes to drop the gloves with dudes twice his height, and Tony Amonte and score? Ok I'm kidding, kind of, but Friesen had two fights, Langkow held his own, and Amonte had the tying goal in a Flames...
This sounds like a tabloid piece but it isn't. Fans should prepare to see a smaller Iginla take to the ice come opening day. Rumours have it Iginla has streamlined his body by eating nothing but power bars stuffed with prime rib.... [That doesn't make any sense.]...
